Kaieteur News – The son of “abusive Kitty businessman, Devenand Singh” is now being accused of an alleged involvement in a recent assault of another businessman over animal feed.
Singh is currently before the court for the brutal assault of a female relative at his store, Brands2Go, located in Kitty, and on Friday April 21, Devon Rambalak, 37, another kitty businessman, was allegedly physically assaulted by his son and an employee of his store. Rambalak owns a feed shop at Sandy Babb Street Kitty and he alleged that on Saturday April 16, the employee along with Singh’s wife and another woman entered his shop to purchase chicken feed. They reportedly asked him the price for a bag of broken rice ($4200) and a bag of wheat midd ($2200) and he gave it to them.
According to Rambalak they paid him $2200 and he assumed that they were paying him for the wheat midd he sold them and they left. However, the trio reportedly returned the following week and told him that he had sold them the wrong feed and they wanted an exchange. Rambalak said he refused to exchange the feed because they had it in their possession for a while. “I tell them that I cannot accept the feed and if they wanted the broken rice let them purchase”, Rambalak alleged.
The kitty businessman alleged that it appeared as though the trio informed Singh’s son about the matter, because not long after he came with another employee in his Jeep. “The man (Singh’s son) jump out the vehicle and started to verbally abuse me while videoing me with his cellphone” claimed the Kitty businessman.
They reportedly got into a heated argument over the feed and Rambalak remembered seeing Singh’s son reaching to his waist for something. “When I see that I got scared because I did not know if he was going to pull out anything so I started to keep my eyes on him”, Rambalak continued.
It was at this moment, he recalled, that one of the employees attacked him along with Singh but according Rambalak it was brief after the others present intervene to make peace.
Rambalak even shared with Kaieteur News, footage from security cameras on his presence capturing the moment he was attacked by the employee and Singh’s son.
Rambalak further alleged that after the confrontation he walked to the Kitty Police Station to make a report. It was taken by the ranks and Rambalak was sent to do a medical and return to give investigators a statement. However, footage seen by this media house showed a vehicle identified to be that of Singh’s in the vicinity of the station while Rambalak was making his report at the station.
Two men were in the back of the jeep and one of them peeped into the station before it drove off and parked a short distance away. Security camera also captured the moment when Rambalak walked out of the station. As he walked away, he spotted the vehicle parked at the corner and then sprinted back to the police station where he was seen chatting with a police officer outside of the police stations’ compound and as he was doing so, the jeep drove off.
Asked what had transpired, Rambalak said, “When I walk out of the station I see the vehicle parked on the corner and when I see that, I got fearful cause I said to myself if them man attack me and beat me up, so I run back and tell the officer, ‘watch them man creasing me’ and he tell me ‘don’t frighten dem can’t do u nuttin’ and the same time the car drive off”.
Rambalak also alleged that he returned the next day to give a statement and while doing so officers chose not to write all that he was saying. “Them leff out all the part with (Singh’s Son) and only include the part with his employee and when I asked why, they said that ‘it was not relevant’” said Rambalak.
Kaieteur News understands that Singh’s son was not listed as a suspect by police only his employee. Police had visited Brands2Go to arrest the employee, but when they got there, Singh’s son told them that he was not around and cannot be found. To date, the suspect has not been arrested.
